7 am welcome introduction and pickup at Freedom Rainbow Beach (20 Spectrum Street, Rainbow Beach, Queensland) before catching the ferry at Inskip Point to K’gari.

Day Two

Return ferry from K’gari to Inskip Point, arriving at Freedom Rainbow Beach between 3:30 pm and 4:30 pm.


Begin your adventure with Dingo’s by boarding the Inskip Point ferry from Rainbow Beach and then hitting the sand highways of the Fraser Coast's golden jewel, K’gari (Fraser Island)! Settle in for the journey and get ready for two nature-packed days with your expert guides and youthful crew!

Maheno Shipwreck

The first destination on your bustling K’gari itinerary is the stretching eastern beaches, where salty breezes and glistening waves are in abundance! Kick back and settle in for a morning tea at one of the island’s many freshwater creeks before reaching the Maheno Shipwreck. Built in 1905 as one of the first turbine-driven steamers, snap some pictures and learn all about Maheno’s fascinating history as you traverse around the grand shipwreck.

Eli Creek

After a jam-packed morning of 4WD fun, reach the largest creek on K’gari by the afternoon for a divine swim in some of the freshest waters you’ll ever see! Eli Creek pours up to four million litres of freshwater into the adjacent ocean every hour, creating the perfect destination for a refreshing float downstream. As the sun begins to set, arrive at your cosy campsite for a night of laid-back mingling and star gazing with your fellow campers, before heading to your comfortable tent accommodation.

Central Station

Your second day of K’gari adventure begins! Rise early and cruise south into everchanging rainforest vegetation to reach Central Station. Here you’ll take a relaxed hike to Wanggoolba Creek, where your guide will share the rich Indigenous significance and logging history of the area. Continue further into the dense forestry with a 1.8km self-guided walk to Pile Valley, where you’ll have morning tea surrounded by striking Satinay trees.

Lake McKenzie

Arguably one of the most beautiful destinations on K’gari and the Australian East Coast, your 4WD adventure will take you to Boorangoora (Lake McKenzie) next! A perched lake fed solely by rainwater, the lake boasts crystalline silica sands and clear blue waters of every shade. Laze on the white foreshore and swim with friends before driving back out to Eastern Beach to board the return ferry to Rainbow Beach.

Travel Risk/Insurance:

It should be noted that adventure travel involves risk. Whilst we make every effort to safeguard clients, we cannot be responsible for personal injury or loss due to the actions of our clients which are beyond our control. We highly recommend that all clients have travel insurance covering illness, injury, loss or damage to personal belongings and not being able to travel on the confirmed date of departure. You should also ensure your travel insurance will cover special circumstances including weather events preventing guests from travelling to their tour departure destination and cancelled flights due to unforeseen circumstances.

We strongly recommend that you have travel insurance, especially during the wet season.

In the unlikely event of your trip being cancelled or stood down, all guest communication is required to go through our Online Store.

Accountability/Misconduct:

All Service Operators have the right to provide client feedback and to cancel bookings based off of feedback from other Service Operators. 

Please enjoy your travel experience in a kind and responsible manner.

Sailing Whitsundays/Mr Travel will treat this as any normal client cancellation and therefore the cancellation fees stated in the Client Cancellation Policy will apply.
